Is $20,000 to install a Trane XV20i heat pump and matching furnace a fair price?
Project Details
My 2012 3-ton Trane XL20i heat pump lost its compressor, and a $3,000 repair feels too expensive. My XC95m furnace is still functional. I initially wanted to switch to a Mitsubishi H2i system, potentially dual fuel with propane, but I learned they don't work well with ducted zones, and I have an upstairs and a downstairs zone. I have 22kw of solar, so I'm not worried about higher electric bills compared to propane costs. I'd like the new heat pump to operate efficiently down to 5F. I'm struggling to decide between the Trane and Lennox options, weighing the Trane's perceived better build quality against the Lennox's higher efficiency, especially at colder temperatures, despite online reviews suggesting the Lennox might struggle at lower temps.
